New Baby

On October 16 we got our new baby girl, Ember Naylene Dalton! We had gone to the doctor for a check up that morning and found that we were dilated to a three so we went ahead and had labor started because I knew I wouldn't last long anyway and was worried that I'd go into labor while Mike was at work and he wouldn't be able to get there in time. It was probably a good thing too because we got to the hospital about noon and she was born at 3:59! She weighed 7 lbs, 1 oz and is 20 inches long. Here are some of the pictures they take in the hospital.






Cassie and Corrina get to be in the delivery room and saw her be born. It was a neat, educational experience for them! Now they won't stop fighting over who gets to hold her! I'm taking 12 weeks off of work, so I get all the holidays off! Now all I have to do is loose this weight! Katie actually asked me if there was still another baby in there!
